You cant be too sure of what you'll find at the Chico Museum, in this distinctive old 1904 Carnegie Library building, since the museum offers both permanent and rotating exhibits, but one thing thats certain is that its always interesting.
On permanent display are artifacts from Chicos Chinese Temple, 19th century musical instruments, and other historical artifacts and photos of Chico and the surrounding area. Lectures, slide shows, and seminars are offered year round. Call for a calendar and newsletter.
The 28-acre Patrick Ranch is Chicos newest historical attraction, reflecting the agricultural, cultural, social, and economic history of the North Sacramento Valley. Annual events there include an old-fashioned Threshing Bee & Antique Equipment Show held in June, complete with draft horses and vintage farm equipment.
